we walked along a path
I had my hand in yours
I told you I was scared
you said it will be OK
we sat on a rock
and I looked at you
and for a split second
I realized what love feels like.
I fell in love with you
my eyes dancing with fire
we walked along the path
you let go of my hand and
looked at me you said,
"I don't like the look in your eyes,
I see nothing more than friendship."
then you walked away
and I sat there
with my heart ripped out
of my chest on the
path that I will never
cross again.

Do you think you're funny?
Well I don't think you are.
Do you think it's fun to walk all over me?
I don't think it's fun.
Do you think it's OK to play with me?
I don't think it's OK.
Matter of fact,
I think you're ridiculous.
What kind of man can do that
to a girl like me?
But I can't make it more complicated.
I love you
But you hated that I loved you
So I tried to hate that I loved you
Until it came to
I hated all of you
Because you thought it was so funny
to see me cry
to see me angry
So now I hate you
and hate that I loved you
and you should be happy
because a man like you needs
a girl to laugh at your jokes
and I'm not that girl.

what a loving person you are
your perfect
everything I could ask for
I don't know how you
ended up in my trash life
but you brought me happiness
I thank you
but now I wish as though
I were dead
because all I did was
make you up inside my
head.

I don't get angry
I burn
I don't get mad
I flare up
but I don't like that because
I don't
flare up
I don't
burn
I
set
fire
and watch it destroy
just like you destroyed me.

crying
sadness
sleeping too much
eating less
having frustration
hyperventilating
mental breakdowns
these are things society calls depression
but I see depression
as masking emotions
acting happy
putting a smile on your face
when there isn't room for one
being there for someone
when no one is there for you
so when you see someone smiling
don't assume they are happy
help them teach them love
because who knows
maybe you saved a life

island
please don't drown me in your seas
just searching for a place where I can be
the water took me far away
searching for a destination day by day
floating off to find a place
the water rages but with grace
I see an island ahead somehow
wondering how I did not drown
looking to see the sands are fair
my boat will take me there
sunshine and rainbows come from there
but all I feel is despair.
